 I've installed MSVC2008 express, "KDE on Windows" and CMake-2.6 beta.
 Do I need something else? The KDE package seems to have Qt, iconv and
 libzip, I am not sure about gettext, do I really need it if we
 compile with internal intl?

By the way, I see that KDE is also bringing libintl.{a,dll} so maybe we could just use that instead of the internal one? I'd vote for this personally, one less thing to build.

For the Windows builds an external intl.dll is already used. I'm not sure whether this KDE version is compiled with MSVC,

KDE offers two sets of library for Mingw and MSVC users.

but I would recommend you to use the libraries from this file: ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/contrib/lyx-windows-deps-msvc2008.zip

You might want to reconsider this and look at what the KDE guys came up with. Actually I think it would be great if LyX were part of the "KDE on Windows" installation.


By the way, it's easier to build LyX on Windows with SCons following the procedure from INSTALL.Win32.

I don't think so ;-)
(I prefer the CMake generated MSVC project for development).
